Join us for the 50th anniversary of AHCA's treasured national event—a golden milestone of fellowship, driving, and Healey heritage. This year’s celebration takes us to Galena, Illinois, a historic town set amid one of the most geologically fascinating landscapes in the country: the Driftless Region.
________________________________________
The Driftless Difference Unlike much of the Midwest, the Driftless Region escaped the flattening effects of the last Ice Age. The result is a landscape of dramatic bluffs, winding rivers, and valleys that feel more like the Appalachians than the prairies. For Healey drivers, this means one thing: roads with character. Tight curves, rolling climbs, and breathtaking vistas make this a driver’s paradise—without needing to trek to the mountains or coasts.

Why Galena? Galena itself is a jewel—rich in history, with 19th-century architecture, cozy restaurants, and boutique shops just a short drive from our host venue at Eagle Ridge Resort. It’s the perfect base for a week of spirited driving, good company, and new adventures.
